confession_n and_o the_o like_a but_o that_o this_o i_o mean_v such_o a_o plentiful_a provision_n of_o spiritual_a guide_n be_v not_o so_o practisable_v in_o england_n in_o regard_n that_o most_o of_o the_o english_a curate_n have_v family_n to_o provide_v for_o and_o consequent_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o great_a benefice_n than_o those_o who_o have_v oblige_v themselves_o to_o a_o single_a life_n and_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n what_o be_v sufficient_a for_o many_o pastor_n beyond_o sea_n will_v scarce_o be_v enough_o for_o one_o here_o especial_o i_o say_v the_o regulars_n be_v maintain_v

i_o have_v make_v more_o than_o once_o and_o particular_o i_o remember_v that_o i_o speak_v somewhat_o of_o this_o kind_n to_o c._n o._n and_o i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o that_o i_o can_v but_o think_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o shame_n lie_v at_o their_o door_n who_o be_v more_o concern_v for_o the_o extent_n of_o their_o jurisdiction_n or_o profit_n than_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o soul_n commit_v to_o their_o care_n and_o when_o i_o understand_v that_o dr._n tenison_n be_v one_o of_o those_o it_o be_v then_o that_o i_o shall_v begin_v to_o do_v what_o he_o say_v i_o have_v do_v viz._n pity_v the_o state_n of_o st._n martin_n it_o be_v according_a to_o what_o i_o have_v say_v here_o that_o i_o answer_v the_o doctor_n tell_v he_o withal_o that_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o largeness_n of_o the_o out-parish_n in_o general_a and_o not_o of_o his_o in_o particular_a and_o this_o as_o one_o will_v have_v think_v will_v have_v satisfy_v any_o reasonable_a man._n but_o the_o french_a say_v a_o scald_a cat_n dread_v cold_a water_n and_o it_o seem_v the_o doctor_n which_o i_o then_o know_v nothing_o of_o have_v so_o deep_a a_o parishioner_n a_o see_v the_o drs._n epistle_n to_o his_o parishioner_n impression_n make_v on_o he_o in_o his_o youth_n by_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o father_n benefice_n that_o now_o the_o least_o hint_n which_o so_o much_o as_o bring_v it_o to_o his_o mind_n raise_v his_o suspicion_n and_o indignation_n to_o a_o high_a degree_n moreover_o the_o doctor_n seem_v to_o take_v it_o ill_o that_o i_o undervalue_v the_o reform_a charity_n and_o say_v that_o there_o be_v too_o many_o church_n within_o the_o wall_n and_o that_o in_o some_o place_n there_o be_v two_o in_o one_o churchyard_n he_o talk_v somewhat_o likewise_o of_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n for_o building_n of_o twelve_o new_a church_n for_o the_o suburb_n which_o be_v no_o small_a confirmation_n of_o what_o i_o have_v say_v of_o the_o want_n of_o they_o i_o look_v on_o that_o compulsive_a way_n of_o do_v good_a work_n as_o not_o so_o present_a so_o certain_o the_o statute_n of_o mortmain_n be_v a_o better_a sign_n of_o the_o charity_n of_o former_a age_n than_o this_o act_n for_o build_v church_n be_v of_o that_o of_o the_o present_a clear_a a_o demonstration_n of_o charity_n as_o when_o they_o be_v do_v voluntary_o and_o without_o constraint_n and_o therefore_o i_o tell_v the_o doctor_n that_o it_o argue_v some_o defect_n in_o they_o that_o it_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o act_n of_o parliament_n for_o do_v thing_n which_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n absolute_o necessary_a the_o doctor_n answer_v that_o he_o wish_v he_o can_v see_v some_o of_o our_o charity_n or_o some_o such_o like_a word_n what_o he_o mean_v by_o this_o wish_n i_o can_v not_o well_o tell_v viz._n whether_o he_o will_v have_v we_o employ_v our_o present_a liberty_n in_o building_n church_n that_o when_o time_n serve_v they_o may_v dispossess_v we_o of_o they_o as_o they_o do_v of_o our_o ancient_a one_o and_o so_o be_v provide_v without_o burdened_a the_o people_n by_o act_n of_o parliament_n or_o something_o else_o in_o this_o doubt_n i_o ask_v he_o only_o whether_o he_o will_v have_v we_o build_v church_n now_o in_o england_n to_o which_o he_o make_v i_o no_o answer_n but_o seem_v to_o attempt_v something_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o protestant_a charity_n but_o all_o that_o i_o can_v remember_v he_o say_v be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o brag_v of_o himself_o which_o i_o esteem_v a_o rhetorical_a way_n of_o do_v it_o and_o certain_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v put_v hard_a to_o it_o for_o a_o instance_n of_o charity_n who_o be_v force_v so_o far_o to_o entrench_v upon_o humility_n for_o it_o as_o to_o begin_v with_o himself_o i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a all_o this_o while_n that_o some_o hospital_n almshouse_n and_o church_n have_v be_v build_v by_o protestant_n but_o there_o be_v more_o proportion_n between_o dr._n tenison_n two_o
